          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 55946
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: FORMATTING: Cover page of Word document formatted
                    wrong
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Windows (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 3.6.1.2 release
         Component: Writer
           Product: LibreOffice

3GPP documentation is a good example of Word documents, which are not at all
comfortable to read with LibreOffice (or OpenOffice - this error has been there
"always").

Attached is 3GPP specification 25.133 v11.2.0 as both original Word document
and as PDF, which is exported from MS Word 2010. The original Word document can
also be fetched from here:
http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/2012-09/Rel-11/25_series/25133-b20.zip

If the Word document is opened in any MS Word installation (in almost any
computer, with almost any Word version), the document looks the same. Cover
page looks good, page numbers stay the same. The attached PDF represents how
the document should look like.

But when the same document is opened in LibreOffice (for example 3.6.1.2, Build
ID e29a214), the cover page formatting is messed up, and also other pages are
formatted slightly differently. This causes e.g. page numbers to run slightly
differently than in Word. I remember that these formatting problems have
appeared always in all OpenOffice versions, with all 3GPP documents. Thus it is
not comfortable to read 3GPP documents with LibreOffice and companies working
with 3GPP related development have to stick with MS Word.

The attached ZIP file (25133-b20.zip) contains following:
- 3GPP specification document in both original Word format
- PDF document created with MS Word showing how the document should look like
